Imphal, Apr 11 : A 14-hour general strike has been called by a local committee on April 13 next to press the Manipur government to book those responsible for killings of Sub-Divisional-Officer (SDO) Th Kishan and his two staff in in February last.

In a statement here last evening, the Joint Action Committee (JAC), formed by local residents, said the committee would also impose a 'public curfew' in the state on the night of April 17 to press their demand.

Stating that the authorities had not taken any concrete step to arrest the culprits, the JAC said they would also organise a public rally throughout Imphal town on April 18 to draw the attention of the public to the failure of the government.

It said they would also burn the effigy of NSCN-IM leader Th Muivah throughout the state on April 18 to show that NSCN-IM was a terrorist organisation as its members were responsible for killings of Kishang and his two staff members, A Rajen and Y Token.
